I bought a used one w/o a manual. It seems simple enough, but I cannot find a single shot mode. When I shoot, I guess I hold the shutter down for a while after the exposure. A habit I have gotten into as a slow soft down stroke seems to lower the camera vibration, and I must hold it down for longer than about .5 seconds rather than a jirky down/up motion. Often the winder takes a second picture. I would hope Leica, in their infinite wisdom, would have allowed a single shot mode. If anyone has a manual they could photocopy or scan for me, I would appreciate it. Aram This message is made of 100% recycled electrons. No new atoms were destroyed in making it.
